Say goodbye to e-commerce pagination

(1 vote)

As an online shopper, I can say that there is one thing I really don't like about browsing e-commerce websites....navigating through pages and pages of products. Well now there is a solution!

Anyone who has done some online shopping (and who hasn't?) has encountered one thing on pretty much every e-commerce website they have been to....Paging through thousands of products in dozens of categories trying to find what you're looking for. Sure there is search, but search on e-commerce websites isn't always the best, and even when its good you can still end up with more than a dozen pages of products to sort through.

Enter Infinite Scroll. This jQuery plugin will eliminate paging by loading content on the page as the customer scrolls. This means that the user doesn't have to wait while hundreds of products load, they only have to scroll down to the bottom of the page and more products are automatically loaded when they reach the bottom!

This is one of those eureka ideas where we wonder why we didn't think of this sooner! No more pagination, no more hitting the back button 10 times to get back to the category page. All products, one page and you only have to wait for the ones you want to see to load.

My hats off to the developers!

Check out the link below for the plugin.

Look for a lot of e-commerce sites to start adapting this functionality in the near future. Implement it now on your site and get the jump on the big boys :) That's what we're hear for.
